Wang Yi: China's diplomacy provides much-needed stability to turbulent world

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with journalists from both domestic and international outlets on Friday to discuss China's foreign policy and external relations, on the sidelines of the third session of the 14th National People's Congress.

The year 2024 saw profound changes in the international landscape, said Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee.

China made important progress in its diplomacy over the past year, he said, adding that the country has fostered a positive external environment for China's high-quality development, brought much-needed stability to a changing and turbulent world, and made new and solid strides in building a community with a shared future for mankind.

Noting that the mission of China's diplomacy remains unchanged, Wang said China will, along with other countries, continue to uphold what is right, steer the direction of our era, defend international fairness and justice, and safeguard world peace and stability.
